Description for Kingdom Come: The Amillennial Alternative
Hardback. .
The end times: a contentious subject amongst Christians.
Will there be a literal 1,000 years after Christ’s return as dramatized by the popular Left Behind novels?
However, premillennialism is not the only option for Christians. In this important new book, Sam Storms provides a biblical rationale for amillennialism; the belief that 1,000 years mentioned in the book of Revelation is symbolic with the emphasis being the King and his Kingdom.
Perhaps it’s time that the theology of Left Behind was left behind.
Accessible scholarship: extraordinary ... Read moreobservations presented in a down to earth manner. This comprehensive and substantial work faithfully deals with the relevant Biblical texts in great depth.
Some of Storms’ stop–offs include:
- Foundational Principles for the Interpretation of Prophecy
- Dispensationalism
- Daniel’s contribution
- Israel: “Replacement” theology and the future of Israel
- The Olivet Discourse of Jesus
- Revelation: Chronology, The Binding of Satan, The First Resurrection
- A study of the Antichrist
- The case for Amillennialism
A substantial and trustworthy contribution to the eschatological debate that deserves to be taken seriously. Sam Storms’ work will be a valuable resource to both students and the wider church.

Reviews for Kingdom Come: The Amillennial Alternative
Sam Storms’ book, Kingdom Come: the Amillennial Alternative, is a substantial work on the viability of the amillennial perspective on eschatology, including that of the book of Revelation … Even those who may disagree with Storms’ amillennial approach will definitely benefit from his book.
G. K. Beale (Professor of New Testament and Biblical Theology, Westminster Theological Seminary, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) Storms ... Read moremarshals exegetical and theological arguments in defense of his view in this wide–ranging work. Even those who remain unconvinced will need to reckon with the powerful case made for an amillennial reading. The author calls us afresh to be Bereans who are summoned to search the scriptures to see if these things are so.
Thomas R. Schreiner (James Buchanan Harrison Professor of New Testament Interpretation and Associate Dean, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky) Imminently readable, this is the book I would recommend on amillennialism from here on out.
Jared C. Wilson (Director of Content Strategy for Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and Managing Editor of For The Church, Midwestern's site for gospel-centered resources.) There is something in here to challenge and to encourage all of us, no matter our persuasion. I pray this book will help others in the same way it has helped me.
Justin Taylor (Executive vice president for book publishing, Crossway, Wheaton, Illinois) This is a remarkable book which will surely become the standard bearer for amillennialism for years to come.
Kevin DeYoung (Senior Pastor, Christ Covenant Church, Matthews, North Carolina) Sam Storms’ Kingdom Come is a remarkably comprehensive and informative study of eschatology from a Reformed perspective. Not only does he persuasively argue the amillennial position but he provides a clear and charitable understanding of the alternatives. On topic after topic, I marveled at Storms’ sound handling and lucid teaching of difficult material. Kingdom Come is extraordinarily helpful to the student of eschatology and no Reformed library will be complete without this book.
Richard D. Phillips (Senior Minister, Second Presbyterian Church, Greenville, South Carolina) … the most helpful book on the various millennial views I have seen since W. J. Grier’s The Momentous Event. His work is marked by careful exegesis of pertinent texts, and ranges widely and deeply in all of the relevant Scriptural passages dealing with the end of the age.
